I have had a low pulse rate for quite awhile. I'm wondering if anyone else has this and if so what have you done for it(pacemaker)? Do you think it relates to Lyme?

check you thyroid levels

There is a condition known as lyme carditis that can cause the heart rate to slow down. If you have any other rhythm issues you may want to look further into this..

I'm on thyroid meds... A new med I'm on says it can make you need more Armour... I'll have to check into it.
I haven't found much on Lyme Carditis... I'll have to check with my LLMD.
Thanks!

I have attached a link that explains L. Carditis further. It usually occurs at the onset of infection during the early disseminated stage but can go on for years if undetected.
